30 Rapid E-learning Resources to Kick-Start the New Year
This blog post is by Articulate Community Manager David Anderson.
Like most e-learning developers, you probably spend more time using learned skills than you do learning new skills. But I’m guessing you have a list of things you really want to learn—things you know you should learn. The good thing is there are lots of folks who share the same goals.
One of the things that’s so cool about E-learning Heroes—besides all the free stuff—is the community-driven sharing that goes on. It’s really neat to see so many folks with different backgrounds and experience sharing with each other.
What’s the easiest way to dive in? Ask a question or two—you know you have some. And if you don’t have a question, try answering a couple questions—your expertise is welcome!
